Create Auto-Pay Timesheets

If you use Costpoint Payroll, you can use the Create Auto-Pay Timesheets screen to generate paychecks even though timesheets are missing for a given pay period.

You must enter a timesheet in Costpoint for a paycheck to be generated. 

This application first prints a report and then creates "Regular" timesheets for the selection criteria entered. These timesheets are included in the next regular paycheck generated by the Compute Payroll screen (if used), and are included in the next Labor Distribution posting.

The report lists the employees for which a timesheet is generated. The report contains the employee ID, employee name, general labor category, workers' comp code, labor location, hourly amount, salary amount, PT Use code, pay type factor, pay type amount, and labor cost amount. After reviewing the report, you can create auto-pay timesheets, or you can print/create auto-pay timesheets in one step.

Auto-pay timesheets are designed to be included with regular timesheets for the timesheet cycle and date. To create timesheets for all employees in a timesheet cycle, run this screen before entering any timesheets for the timesheet cycle and date. To create timesheets for all employees without regular timesheets in a timesheet cycle, run this screen after entering any regular timesheets for the timesheet cycle and date.

Multi-state functionality has been added to a number of applications. This functionality allows the proper calculation of withholdings for employees who work in multiple states during a single pay period. This enhancement enables you to compute and report multi-state withholding taxes, based on the tax regulations specific to each state.
